feather fans are produced, and Stacey seems to be getting in to her element as Billie suggests dozens of ways to hold and fan them. “Make a kind of tail with them,” is her advice, and it works, our girl looks every bit the saucy starlet. A quick outf it change later and all initial nerves have vanished as a now nautically- dressed Stacey poses at the entrance to the hotel, blowing kisses and laughing gaily as she tosses her sailor hat in to the air. The stars pose together, and Billie continues to guide Stacey through the movements of a star, completely relaxed and composed. Our entourage of stylists and starlets attracts some attention from passers-by, but Stacey Sizzle isn’t phased; she just laughs and waves as a group of young men shout encouragement (“Take it off”) from their car. Every now and again Sharon will leap into action with a comb and tease invisible strands of hair back in to place, and Billie continues to instruct: how to hold arms, how to angle calf muscles, how to stick boobs and bum out simultaneously. And as the last of the afternoon sun starts to disappear, we call a wrap and applaud our gorgeous everyday gal, who by now has completely metamorphosed into a burlesque butterf ly. A butterf ly, wearing a smile the size of a London, which is where she’s heading back to now the sun is starting to set. It’s been a long day in makeup, being ordered around and dressed by people she’s just met, but Stacey has taken it all in her stride and has shone in the limelight. But then as Gypsy Rose Lee said, “If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing slowly. . .very slowly”.


EMERGED AS SOON AS THE HAIR AND MAKE UP WERE ON


I WAS AMAZED BY HOW MY INNER DITA
